Xeomin Treatments

Xeomin Injections in Los Angeles

Your Xeomin treatment will begin by cleansing the area to be treated, then our medical licensed injector will ask you to smile, frown or look surprised. This activates the muscles to be treated. After identifying the target area, we may outline it with washable marker. Injection follows, with a normal treatment consisting of 6 to 25 Xeomin injections. The number of injections during your treatment depends on the size of the target area and the severity of your frown lines, wrinkles or crow's feet. After treatment, your brows may appear lifted and your eyelids may have an open look. Xeomin refreshes your face, giving it a more pleasant, vibrant look. If you find that frown lines between your eyebrows or forehead lines make you look old, tired or angry, Xeomin can help!

Is Xeomin a Botox Alternative?

Many of our clients get regular BOTOX treatments, and swear by the product. Some others are switching to Xeomin as it is a purer formula and believed to be less likely to product an allergic reaction. Both products work by affecting the nerves that trigger muscle motion beneath the skin, causing them to relax and stop creating the creases and lines due to facial motion. A difference in Xeomin is that it contains only the key ingredient that causes the muscle relaxation, without the additional proteins found in BOTOX. Patients who don't respond well to Botox may fare better with Xeomin. IncobotulinumtoxinA, the only active ingredient, isn't coated with protein like Botox. Because it contains a plain form of botulinum toxin type A, there's nothing to interfere with its functionality even in the most sensitive patients. So yes Xeomin is a good Botox alternative!

Emily H.
I'm so happy to have Yana in my life! I would trust no one else. She is very knowledgable and makes you feel very comfortable. I received xeomin and the results were amazing, lasting for over 6 months in my case. I received the injection and went back I work afterward - no bruising and no indication I had gotten something done. Please do yourself a favor and come see Yana, you will not regret it!!
Asu L.
My newly found beauty destination. I'm really happy with the results, xeomin rocks! Yana is great, I did not feel any discomfort at all and I'm very sensitive. I will definitely go back for more!
Sarah B.
Yana is so professional and honest when it comes to what you need instead of pushing stuff that is unnecessary. I love my results with Xeomin!

 

Xeomin vs Botox

Our Los Angeles patients often ask us Xeomin vs Botox what should I get?  Xeomin and Botox both contain neurotoxins to temporarily paralyze facial muscles in the treatment area. This softens any wrinkles, lines or crow's feet caused by facial movements. Botox and Xeomin provide roughly the same overall results for most patients. There is one major reason some patients may benefit more from Xeomin vs Botox, and it has to do with how the product is made.

Xeomin injections use the same natural components offered by Botox's main ingredient, the bacteria Clostridium botulinum, but unlike Botox, Xeomin has no additives.  Xeomin is formulated from incobotulinumtoxinA, a Type A botulinum toxin. It's a neurotoxin that stops muscle activity in the treatment area by blocking contraction-causing chemicals. Xeomin contains only active components, as the manufacturing process removes dormant ingredients. You'll receive 100% pure neurotoxin during the treatment to freeze muscle activity and make your skin smooth and line-free. If you haven't responded to Botox injections, it may be due to the antibodies forming around proteins in Botox's main ingredient. Patients who see poor results with Botox may respond well to Xeomin injections. There's less risk of an allergic reaction to Xeomin, since it is a "naked" neurotoxin without added proteins. 

 Unlike Botox, Xeomin doesn't need to be refrigerated between uses. It contains no additives, just botulinum toxin type A. This may reduce the chance of some patients developing antibodies. If a patient's body senses that it's a foreign invader, the individual may develop antibodies to fight it and not achieve the desired cosmetic result.

Any condition treatable with Botox can be corrected with Xeomin injections. Ask us which product is best for your needs. Both products shouldn't be used interchangeably. If one works for you, continue to use it. If you've tried Dysport, another type of botulinum toxin used to smooth out frown lines between the eyebrows, and gotten less than stellar results, Xeomin may work better for you.

What is Xeomin 

Xeomin is a recent development in advanced aesthetics and is proving to be exceptionally effective for skin smoothing and for reducing the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles. This product is a good BOTOX alternative, because it reduces the muscle motion producing lines, creases, and wrinkles, it is a purer formula. It is free from additives and this fact alone may reduce the risk for developing antibodies that will eventually limit how well a product works.

In 2010, the FDA approved the use of Xeomin for improving moderate to severe frown lines (also known as glabellar lines) between the eyebrows. The FDA granted approval after clinical trials in the U.S. involving 547 adult patients. The studies concluded this treatment successfully reduced frown lines between the eyebrows.

It blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles, stopping contractions. Without constant muscle movement, wrinkles and frown lines soften or disappear.  It doesn't need to be refrigerated, making transport effortless. Ease of storage and it's additive-free formula gives it a longer shelf life.

 Xeomin Treatment

When you frown, grimace, laugh or make other facial expressions, the muscles underneath your skin contracts. As you repeat these expressions over years or decades, they create frown lines between your eyebrows. Xeomin is an FDA-approved treatment to treat moderate to severe frown lines between the brows. A smooth, unlined brow naturally looks younger. It works by affecting the nerves that trigger muscle motion. These muscle layers are constantly in motion, and eventually create wrinkles and lines. As with any injectable product, the amount used and the area into which it is injected could not be more important. At our Medical Spa, we are proud to be known for our exceptional skill in injecting Xeomin, and for helping our Los Angeles clients look younger, fresher, and – natural.

There is no recovery time with Xeomin injections. You will have no restrictions and can get your treatment during lunch break, and then return to work as normal. One of the greatest advantages of this product is that you do not have to worry about taking time away from your normal routine – just get the injections in a short appointment and return to life as usual. Post treatment, you cannot lie down for four hours, and avoid any deep massage of the area for four days. 

Don't take aspirin or any blood-thinning medication or supplement for 2 days after treatment. Don't lie down for 2 to 4 hours after treatment to maintain placement of the injectable. Discontinue use of aspirin or other blood-thinning medications a week before receiving treatment to reduce the chance of bleeding.
